Connecting and Configuring your Phone Adapter Router Requirements Your cable or DSL router must be equipped with an RJ45 Ethernet port. Many routers have both an RJ45 Ethernet port and a USB connection. If you have a router with both Ethernet and USB, and you are using the USB connection at this time, you will be instructed to use the RJ45 Ethernet port during the installation procedure. If your router has only a USB port, you can request a different type of router from your ISP, or you can, in some cases, purchase a router that has an RJ45 Ethernet port on it. ALWAYS INSTALL YOUR NETWORK FIRST! IF YOU ARE SETTING UP YOUR NETWORK FOR THE FIRST TIME, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOUR NETWORK IS CONNECTED AND RUNNING BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO SET UP THE PHONE ADAPTER. BE SURE THAT AT LEAST ONE COMPUTER ON YOUR NETWORK HAS ACCESS TO THE INTERNET BEFORE SETTING UP THE PHONE ADAPTER. Determining your Current Network and Connection The Phone Adapter can only function as a client in an existing network configuration. For example, if you currently have broadband access and a gateway/router installed in your location, you may add the Phone Adapter as a client to your network. This is the simplest and fastest method to install your Phone Adapter.
